Hi there!

So I have gone over the lessons and listened to all of the videos. I tend to print out 10 clean copies of the problem sets they give us in the lesson and then I drill those. I'm wondering if you still need to drill prep tests that are "Deprecated"? To be honest I have no idea what the Deprecated part means.... I know that it means that it will be deleted soon...so should we still drill these as well? I'm hoping that if I drill hard enough on the problem sets that they give us per section then that will be enough and then I can go ahead and take a full on prep test.

Thank you!

I had a Skype interview today with an alum of the school, and he suggested letting the admissions office know if I’ve gotten into other programs. He added that the admissions office appreciates the transparency and will likely render a decision sooner. Is this true for most/all schools? I’m at the edge of my seat waiting to hear back from a different school, since my husband got a job offer in the same city. He doesn’t want to accept the job until I’m admitted. I have been admitted to 5 schools. Thoughts? Thanks!

Planning on taking the lsat on April 25 if anyone wants to meet up and take PT's/BR together under exam conditions and just overall kill this exam together. If anyone is interested email me at leehhl1123@gmail.com or leave a comment here (check every day or so)

I totally forgot about the scratch paper. The thing is right after I finished it was completely silent for a minute or so, so I just closed the connection with proctor u.

Was I supposed to rip up scratch paper in front of camera? Obviously after I realized this I did throw it away and ripped it up, but hours after. Will people be penalized if not ripping it up in front of camera afterwards?

Hey everyone, quick shortcut for these kinds of LG questions. First, look at each of the answer choices and see if any of them must be true. The ones that aren't are instantly wrong. Think about it--you're testing for logical equivalence. For two statements to be logically equivalent, they must be true in all circumstances. If either one of the statements isn't true all of the time, they can't constitute a logically valid premise, and they can't be used to imply the validity of other statements.

Hope this helps!

For those who want to come- Prep Test 83 BR call on Thursday evening for the first LR at 7:00 pm Eastern and also 7:00 pm Eastern on Friday for the second LR. This will be a collaborative style BR. Please take the test or sections and do your own BR first but don’t score the section. We would like to have a good discussion and hear different perspectives/ reasoning which is most effective when people don’t know the answers.

We will meet via Zoom. Here is the link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/7769566542

Hi,

So Im averaging -8 on the LR section. There's a pattern to my incorrect answers though. They are all sufficient assumptions, principle, or parallel reasoning questions. They all require me to map out the argument and understand whats missing or to mirror the same map to something else.

The problem is that I don't understand how to map out reasoning. I can do simple ones but on my own, all my diagrams are confusing. HELP!

So I’m having some difficulty eliminating Answer choice A and wondering why my interpretation of it is incorrect.

A says: “The truth of a given description is independent of its emotional vividness.”

I interpreted this to mean, whether a description is true or false is independent of emotional vividness. I remember from both passages that the respective authors thought that telling lies increased emotional vividness, so I thought A was correct by reasoning that if something is untrue then emotional vividness increases. Shakespeare in the first passage and subjectivity in autobiography in the second illustrated this. So I reasoned that truthfulness, as interpreted as being true or false is not independent of emotional vividness, because at least of aspect of truthfulness, being false—increases emotional vividness.

Obviously, this was an incorrect interpretation. Just wondering how I could know that from reading the answer choice, and how I could ascertain the correct one.

Thanks!

Hi,

This was a very weird author's-attitude question. Even when I look at the correct line (line 24), I still don't fully understand how the answer here is B. (I thought the answer was A because of how the author described Bentham's reform as revolutionary and then goes on to describe the flaws behind the reform). Why is B right?

Any #help would be appreciated!

The problem sets for the Most Strongly Supported Statements have been very helpful in fine tuning my skills. However, I am in dire need of help with the questions that are considered High Priority. I cannot seem to correctly figure them out.

What works best for you?

Hi,

For some reason, I just found this question really difficult. I was really kind of stuck between B and E, and I wasn't sure about either of them because it is hard to find direct textual evidence that I can connect back to what the question is asking for. For instance, B looked right because of lines 35-36. E looked sort of right due to lines 57-58. However, what made it really hard for me to decide the answer choice was lines 32-35-- if finding common grounds to communicate is "impossible" then how is it "resolvable" in the first place? This sentence made A look sort of right, and made me doubt my previous thinking...

Can anyone give an explanation for this question?

Any #help would be appreciated!

Hello, would any of you be interested in doing a zoom study session - mainly focusing on RC (it seems to be my weakest section)

Let me know! Only a few days left until we have to take it!

Thanks :)

Greetings 7 Sagers,

I was hoping to get some insight on the ethics of contacting schools for application advice. Is it acceptable to touch base with a school and inquire about advice they can give you as a JD applicant? I'm sure there are several people in this community who are either 1) waiting for a decisions, or 2) on the waiting list, and would greatly appreciate some advice. Thanks!

With about a month remaining until the June LSAT, you might be wondering about your progress and what your next steps should be. In this episode, hosts Nicole, Bailey, and Henry explore how to effectively evaluate where you stand in your preparation as test day approaches. They'll discuss helpful ways to understand your current performance, identify areas that could benefit from more focus, and develop a practical plan to guide your studies through these final important weeks. Join them for a supportive look at navigating the last month of your LSAT journey.

I've read through the Good LOCI examples, and they all mention campus visits. Regretfully, I didn't visit my dream school before being waitlisted, and I fear I won't have the opportunity to do so before May 1st (first-deposit deadline). Any ideas of how I can make up for this? This school typically doesn't allow prospective students to preview classes, but maybe now that it's all over Zoom I can ask?

Hello! Looking for someone or some people to start studying for the LSAT. My goal is to take it in November and shooting for around 170-175. I am located in SLC. So excited (and terrified).

Hello everyone,

I know that if you talk during the LSAT Flex exam, you automatically get DQ. However, and I hope I'm not alone in this, sometimes I whisper to myself or mouth to myself as I'm doing LG or LR. Does anyone know how strict this no talking/mouthing policy is? Thank you!

Whenever I do a standalone section with 26 questions, I am not able to get the allotted time to 35 minutes. Anyone have that issue?

hello, I will be taking the Oct exam and was looking for buddies either virtually or in upstate NY/Ithaca who'd like to work together. I scored a 166 on the June exam and I'm striving for 170-172.

Let me know if you'd be interested/if you have any pieces of advice. (-:

I have 3 copies of the Official LSAT SuperPrep and 1 copy of 10 Actual LSAT (29-38).

Some of them have very light writing on them that is easily erasable.

All items free, you just have to pay shipping. Or if you're in LA area, I can meet up with you.

Mods please let me know if not okay to post this.

@JR For the sake of maximizing my study material, is it best for me to take the old practices right now on classic.7sage before LSAC pulls them? Or should I just switch over to the new platform and start taking the newer tests?

Here is the link to a discord study group. We are working on setting up study hours and student/self-led Q&A. https://discord.gg/bxvjqNk4

i'm taking a new preptest on Sunday and wonder whether anyone else would be interested in getting together to take it with me. i'd prefer to emulate test conditions (e.g. starting at 8:30AM). let me know!

Anyone close to Emerald Isle North Carolina for a study group??

Anybody out here in NJ studying for either February or June 2018? Shoot me a message, I'd love to meet.
